Review: An engaging read - It is a short book, and could be read in a couple hours, but I took my time with it. I was absorbed by the poetic storytelling told within these pages, the life of the author as a young girl and woman growing up at her father’s house. Telling the story of the neighborhood denizens and their eventual outcomes, it provides a peek into what it was like living on the house on Mango Street. Review: Beautifully Written and Very Highly Recommended - Beautifully written and very highly recommended. I'm a longtime fan of the author and this book in particular. Ms. Cisneros does a fine job of opening up her life and experiences to readers by creating a slightly fictionalized version of herself as the main character. Through the years, I've purchased many copies of this book, in fact, as gifts for friends and family who have asked for guidance on writing their own life stories. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00C8S9WJM | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #24,293 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #14 in Hispanic American Literature #30 in Cultural Heritage Fiction #71 in Classic American Literature | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (13,188) | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 4.7 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-0345807199 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 132 pages | | Publication date | April 30, 2013 | | Publisher | Vintage | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Enabled | ## Images ![The House on Mango Street - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81FWtVBMtLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An engaging read *by J***O on January 21, 2026* It is a short book, and could be read in a couple hours, but I took my time with it.

This book tastefully describes the hard topics of discrimination and assault but also is at some points hard to follow due to the vagueness in the chapters. In a summary, Esperanza, being a young hispanic girl in the 50’s was a very hard thing to go through. In her first job she was kissed by an old man who “[kissed her] hard on the mouth and [didn’t] let go,” for just one example (55). She lives on the poor side of friend and faces discrimination anywhere she goes. She goes through life experiencing assault, hardship, friendships, family issues and more. It is somewhat heartwarming and somewhat terrifying read. I really enjoyed the way the other wrote this book. The story is grouped into small anecdotes instead of the normal chronologically written books. Each chapter is 2-5 pages making the book a quick read. Although the book does not have much depth to it, it is a fascinating read and adds many topics that you would not expect to appear within this book. The author uses lots of great comparisons like “my mother's hair, my mother's hair, like little rosettes, like little candy circles all curly and pretty because she pinned it in pincurls all day, sweet to put your nose into when she is holding you, holding you and you feel safe, is the warm smell of bread before you bake it, is the smell when she makes room for you on her side of the bed still warm with her skin, and you sleep near her, the rain outside falling and Papa snoring.” This book was a good and simple read but did not hit me the way a 5 star book would so that is why I gave it 4 stars. I did not truly dislike any part of the book. I think it was a very nicely written book, tastefully covering a wide range of topics. Although like I previously mentioned, it is not a book of depth. It does cause much deep thinking and analyzing so if you are looking for a hard read this is not the book for you. But if you are looking for a easy and interesting read, A House on Mango Street is a great choice. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/95951723-the-house-on-mango-street](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/95951723-the-house-on-mango-street) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
